Squad sheets: West Ham United v Chelsea

West Ham have had a desperately poor start to their season and the last thing they will want to face is a Chelsea side in rampant form and scoring goals by the hatful at home and away. All may not be lost for manager Avram Grant as there is a chink of light in the darkness in the form of Frank Lampard's injury and a creaking John Terry at the heart of the Chelsea defence. Summer signing Thomas Hitzlsperger may make his long-awaited debut at Upton Park as a substitute if he can prove his fitness after a niggling thigh injury. Richard Flower
